This weekend is the Edinburgh Marathon (although based on the route, it is perhaps more accurately the East Lothian Marathon). Last year I volunteered to be a marshal, and I've done the same this year, but with a twist. I originally applied to be a sector marshal, but said I could alternatively be a bike marshal, and they've asked me to take the second role.
The weather looks like good marathon-running conditions, so make sure you get out and support the runners. Course marshals are still needed for the far end of the course, so if you're free on Sunday morning sign up here.
Runners, enjoy the race!

Well hi - I spent as much time as possible today thanking marshals around the course, aware that they've given up their time on what might have been a horrid day (turned out nice, eh?!) but didn't get to any bike marshals so - thanks. Thoroughly enjoyed it, well organised, and the support and efforts of the marshals were excellent and really appreciated.
